Display Category Name

(@mhirschberg)

How can I display a posts category? I’ve been trying to add to top-10.php code but nothing seems to work. I tried:

$output .='<a href="' . $category->cat_ID . '" rel="category tag">' .$category->cat_name. '</a>'

And

$categories = get_the_category();
$separator = ' ';
$output = '';
if($categories){
	foreach($categories as $category) {
		$output .= '<a href="'.get_category_link( $category->term_id ).'" title="' . esc_attr( sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $category->name ) ) . '">'.$category->cat_name.'</a>'.$separator;
	}
echo trim($output, $separator);
}

Neither works. Can you please help me out? Thanks!

Hi,

Where are you putting this code?

A cleaner (untested) option would be to add this to your functions.php

function filter_tptn_after_list_item( $after_list_item, $result ) {

$after_list_item .= get_the_category_list( ', ', '', $result->ID );

return $after_list_item;

}
add_filter( 'tptn_after_list_item', 'filter_tptn_after_list_item', 10, 2);
